EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Farewell China Steam". Till Mosler captures a poignant moment in history, forever preserving the memory of an era that has now passed. The image showcases a double pair of QJ class steam locomotives gracefully traversing the Sandi viaduct on the Jitong line in Nei Mongol province. These majestic machines, once symbols of power and progress, worked tirelessly to haul heavy freight trains across vast landscapes. However, as time marched forward, change inevitably arrived. Just one year after this photograph was taken in 2004, steam traction became nothing more than a nostalgic relic of the past. Diesel locomotives took over completely, marking the end of an era filled with billowing smoke and rhythmic chugging sounds that echoed through valleys and mountains. Mosler's composition beautifully captures both the grandeur of these magnificent steam engines against the backdrop of breathtaking scenery and serves as a visual reminder that progress often comes at a cost. This print not only celebrates the artistry behind capturing such moments but also invites viewers to reflect upon how technology shapes our world. "Farewell China Steam" is more than just an exquisite piece from Fine Art Storehouse; it encapsulates history frozen in time—a tribute to an age when steam-powered locomotion reigned supreme before yielding its place to modern diesel counterparts.
